Built for riders who demand more from their gear, these technical mountain bike pants combine pro-level durability with adaptive comfort systems perfect for all-day trail adventures or park sessions requiring quick adjustments mid-ride.*
Performance Highlights
✔️ 4-way stretch fabric (73% recycled polyester) moves unrestricted during technical climbs/descents while wicking moisture during multi-hour rides
✔️ Patented Race-Ratchet™ closure offers military-grade security (vs basic buckles) with one-handed adjustability even wearing gloves
✔️ Cordura® reinforced knees provide 3x abrasion resistance compared to standard fabrics (lab tested under gravel-heavy conditions)
✔️ Dual-layer storage: front zippered pockets + hidden phone/passport compartment (fits iPhone 15 Pro Max)
Weather-Ready Design
• Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating sheds morning dew/rain showers
• Zipperless inner leg seams eliminate chafing during aggressive pedaling
• Reflective trim for low-light visibility (meets ASTM F1891 safety standards)
Smart Rider Features
▸ Articulated seat panel prevents saddle chafe during 8+ hour rides
▸ gusseted crotch allows full-range leg movement without restriction
▸ Flatlock seams reduce pressure points even when wearing knee pads
